Is it 1916 again? Surf City New Jersey is about 10 miles from Beach Haven where one of the famous 1916 shark attacks occured. - Tom

I was swimming up and it just felt like somebody hit me in the foot with a baseball bat

Yeah, a spiked baseball bat!

Although I had already sworn off all Jersey beachs except for Island Beach State Park, this will make me think twice even when going there.

Yes!, The shark's normal diet of fish has moved or died in retreat from the Red Tide which is a symptom of Globull Warming which is Bush's fault!....../s

I don't know what would freak me more. Having a great white bite me or having something unknown and unseen attack me.

Lake Michigan has no sharks (well, we've an overabundance of lawyers...). We are going to rebuild Michigan's economy based on surfing. I'm writing a new state song (Surfin' Mi-chi-gan...based on Surfin' USA). So, all you former Jersey surfers, c'mon over!

We had a rash of them down here a few years ago, Tidewater and Hatteras regions.

I wonder if they finally stopped chumming off the beaches where the locals swim? I kid you not.

"May" have been bitten by a shark? What are the other possibilities? I should think a shark bite would be obvious.

I'm writing a new state song...

Have you heard "Goin' to Alpena" by the Urbations?

It may be kinda what you're thinking about here.
